Battle for Azeroth build 26433 has added Azerite Powers to hundreds of new items, which you can preview in Wowhead's BFA database. This build also added new Azerite Powers including some interesting ones likely from dungeon gear!

Azerite Power 26433 Observations

The previous build had Azerite Powers spread among four tiers and this build has the Azerite Powers consolidated down to three tiers. The UI is temporary -- it is not final.

Some quests now reward Azerite Power gear. The quest rewards include helms, chests, and shoulders, and all three slots have the same Azerite Power setup. In addition, all Azerite Powers that are not class-specific are the same on any piece of gear rewarded from that quest.

For example, 阿提娜的陨落 rewards Azerite Power armor. All possible Cloth, Leather, Mail, and Plate rewards will include 污秽传输 on the top level as well as 自力更生 and 冷漠面容 on the middle level.

Other datamined Azerite Powers appear to be related to upcoming dungeon drops. For example, Thros is related to Waycrest Manor and Rezan is related to Atal'Dazar.

NEW Your spells and abilities have a chance to draw a Wandering Soul from Thros. The Soul grants you some of its power, increasing your 154 Critical Strike for 14 sec.

NEW Being attacked by an enemy of the Loa has a chance to call a Child of Rezan to grant you a blessing, healing you for 462 and increasing your primary stat by 116 for 1 min.

Armor with Azerite Traits

You can preview all of the armor with Azerite Powers by going to Items > Grants Azerite Powers. At the time of writing this post, there are over 200 items with Azerite Powers attached.

Every item page on Wowhead shows which Azerite Powers are attached. To view the calculator, go to a specific item's page, find the "Azerite Powers" section on that page, and select a class. You will then see the Azerite Powers for each tier.

You can mouseover the traits to see their tooltips and middle-click them to open their spell page as well! You can also share your Azerite Power builds with your friends, all you need to do is to share the URL of the page after you select the traits and it will direct them to the exact same build!

NEW When Devastator / Devastate resets the cooldown of Shield Slam, your Strength is increased by 78 for 8 sec.

I still can't decide if i like this azerite system or not. If these traits are spec specific, and there's only one spec trait per tier, is there really even a choice?

There's choice in that you can equip multiple different items in that slot. It's not like artifact weapons where you are just given one for the entire expansion.

You could pick three items that (for example) greatly enhance your Shield of the Righteous, or you could pick three items that affect different skills. It's almost like building a custom tier set, and actually doesn't sound too bad. And there's also more generic (I assume) choices after that in the other tiers from what we saw of the initial levelling gear.

It also doesn't involve a new AP grind every time we get a new piece of gear. Once you have enough AP on your neck appropriate for the level of content you are doing, any new gear you can just equip and select traits for instantly.

I'm still fairly ambivalent about this. It feels like relics, artifact traits and tier sets have been amalgamated into one system and this could make every gear upgrade / decision into a crucial one with an irreversible consequence. Whatever happened to get new shiy, equip / unequip new shiny and kill all the things?

"Some quests now reward Azerite Power gear", "This build also added new Azerite Powers including some interesting ones likely from dungeon gear". Yeah, sounds like the relic system to me. It could still work out just fine but it's not grabbing me yet, still sounds like a chore for each character rather than fun.

don't understand the SV one. Is it PER TICK or per application? because I don't see why you'd ever have more than 1 stack before you raptor striked. Heck even if it's per tick.

For those who aren't sure this is definitely not final and still just testing if they work because unless it changed today the MM hunter doesn't even have arcane shot anymore.

Actually yes, quick shot was re-renamed arcane shot in a previous build, just make up your mind blizz... c'mon!

Also It looks nice and all but I'd like to see a sample of what will be available in dungeons (I presume the traits will be similar from normal through M+ since it's the same item) and raids. Otherwise I am actually quite excited by the system. Some of the fears I had were answered (relevance throughout content, redundancy of traits amongst others) and now I'd just like to see how good it could be.

Fixed. If you go to the Azerite spell page, it's flagged as Required Druid on Blizzard's end so that's why it showed up in that section by accident.

Ok so we went from Openish Talent Trees(where you could go down each spec as far as you wanted, within the number of points you had w/ 1 point per level), to here Have these Cool Spec Defining Glyphs(in Major and Minor flavors), to Closed Talent Trees(where you had to get to the bottom of your main spec before you could enter another w/ the last 10 points) + Here's some new More Powerful Glyphs!(Primes), To Talents Tiers with meaningful choices Every 15 levels with Glyphs making up the difference in between(but these were pretty much class wide talents) oh and we're removing your Prime Glyphs... To No longer having Major Glyphs oh and no new Talents, But every spec has its Own Separate talents now(mostly), and here have these old Artifact Weapons, they feel just like the old Talent Trees, you even unlock the powers point by point! Though it is really hard to do if you're going for all your specs, so we'll just go ahead and make your growth go by Exponentially Faster! Oh and have these Relics that do Really cool things for you on top of it!

And now we're here, taking away your Artifacts and your Relics, Oh and no more Tier Sets Either, but you know what we'll do? We're going to give you these necklaces that will power up like your Artifacts, only they do nothing on their own, BUT you'll get armor pieces that Do Awesome Spec Related Stuff In Multiple Tiers (based on how much you're powered up said necklace)! Only they only do spec related stuff on the first row, which is the weakest row, and you have only one choice per spec. BUT, All the other tiers are based on the item in Question, like having multiple smaller relevance Relics, I Bet You'll Love It!

Whew.................. I'm Really happy, can't you tell?

Soooooo why can't we have More Talents again? and What are they going to do next to mess with our feelings of empowerment?

With how azerite armour is. Will we see the skills available for them or will it be like the crucible system where we have to go to a certain spot to see them?

I know that this wasn't suppose to replace Artifact weapons altogether, but man the abilities seem a bit on the boring side compared to the Artifact abilities.
